The insurance pricing talent crisis is real.
Every pricing, actuarial and data science leader across the UK insurance industry knows the struggle - a shrinking pool of qualified insurance pricing professionals, soaring salaries and the constant battle to retain the best talent who are headhunted weekly.
But what if there was a smarter, faster and more sustainable way to build high-performing insurance pricing teams for the future?
Enter RTD - Recruit, Train, Deploy - the future of pricing and analytics talent development
Introducing FlarePeople, part of the GWV Talent Solutions Group, has built the UK-first Recruit-Train-Deploy (RTD) programme specifically designed to tackle the pricing talent shortage in insurance head-on.
→ We don’t just hire pricing talent.
→ We create it – purpose-built for UK insurance.
What is the Recruit-Train-Deploy (RTD) model?
RTD is a proven workforce model, now uniquely adapted to meet the specific needs of insurance pricing, actuarial, data science, analytics and machine learning teams.
We identify high-potential individuals from both traditional and non-traditional backgrounds
We deliver an intensive 10-week, Insurance-specific training academy led by market-leading experts
We deploy trained, work-ready consultants directly into your pricing teams – fully embedded, engaged and adding value from day one
The business case for RTD on insurance pricing recruitment
Hiring for specialist roles in pricing has become increasingly unsustainable:
Salaries for pricing talent have increased by 30%+ in the last 2 years
The same pool of candidates is being targeted by every major insurer
Internal diversity and inclusion targets are being missed due to limited access to diverse talent
RTD changes that.
Our RTD model…
…rapidly builds future-fit pricing teams.
…drives diversity of thought, background and experience.
…deduces time-to-hire from months to weeks.
…creates loyalty and retention and delivers long-term value from day one.
Why RTD drives diversity into pricing & data roles
The traditional insurance recruitment model doesn’t fully support diversity, not in terms of gender, ethnicity, socio-economic background or even thought process.
Our RTD approach is different.
We actively seek out brilliant people who wouldn’t typically have had access to, or even considered, a career in insurance pricing.
Graduates from a wide range of academic disciplines
Career changers from adjacent, data-rich industries
Talent from under-represented communities
Returners to work and ex-forces who have an incredible untapped skillset and the capacity to bring their learned skills in a new direction
The result? Fresh thinking, new perspectives, greater innovation and teams that better reflect your customers and the evolving insurance landscape.

We know the UK insurance market inside out, and we’ve used this expertise and our understanding of the unique dynamics of the industry to develop an RTD programme to match the exact requirements.
